John Hind Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 DVBViewer Pro V3.9.4.0/Vista Ultimate With the option "Hide Display in Radio Mode" ticked and a radio station selected, the window looks like this: Notice the spurious black "toung" hanging down over the bottom boundary of the window! Also, it would be good if the window width was reduced too - to the minimum width to show all the controls, and maybe the vestigial window area could show the programme information as shown in the info-tip on the channel list.

Lars_MQ Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 vista evr bug. try another renderer for testing and you see it does not happen. Quote Link to comment
John Hind Posted July 11, 2008 Author Share Posted July 11, 2008 Why not close the renderer down altogether in Radio mode as it is surely not necessary? Should save resources too. Quote Link to comment
Gioxy Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Why not close the renderer down Firstly because without renderer you can't have any OSD... Quote Link to comment
John Hind Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 Firstly because without renderer you can't have any OSD... But I've not got an OSD anyway, just a (square) black hole in my screen! After posting the original message I discovered I could get both a minimised Radio display and a radio OSD by selecting a skin option. However in the instalation default with no skin, there is also no OSD. If I start the program and select a radio channel, the renderer is either not started or reduced to zero height. If I switch from a TV to a radio in this mode I get the renderer "toung", but nothing is displayed on it, hence my suggestion that it may as well be shut down. Incidentally, I cannot get BBC-HD to work on any renderer except the Vista Enhanced and this keeps going dark when non-HD channels change format (i.e. with ad breaks). I wish there was a complete set of Direct-X options seperate for HD and SD or even the ability to override the graph for specific stations. We definitely seem to be back on the "bleeding edge" with this technology! Quote Link to comment
Gioxy Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 ...we STILL ARE on the "bleeding edge": Vista bugs and BBC-HD special trasmissions and new hw (and relative faulty drivers) can't be considered at all DVBViewer faults... Quote Link to comment
